Set in the Quad, a planetary system dominated by the oppressive corporate conglomerate known as the Company, *Killjoys* follows a trio of hardened bounty hunters operating under the Coalition of Relocation Agents (RAC). Dutch, a fiercely independent and lethal assassin with a mysterious royal past, partners with John Jaqobis, a gentle, tech-savvy level-three agent, and D'avin Jaqobis, John’s estranged, muscle-bound older brother carrying military trauma and suppressed memories. Bound by a strict code of absolute neutrality—warrants are all that matter—the trio tracks fugitives across planets, moons, and space stations.Their routine contracts soon spiral into a sprawling interplanetary conspiracy. The Company, led by the ruthless Khlyen—who happens to be Dutch’s abusive
surrogate father and mentor—is conducting terrifying biological experiments on the local working-class populace using a parasitic, sentient black liquid called the Green. Driven by her desperate need for answers regarding her true identity as Aneela, an ancient, genocidal warlord and her biological template, Dutch and her team are pulled into an escalating class war. The oppressed citizens of the moon Westerley, exhausted by corporate exploitation and lethal poverty, launch a bloody revolution.As alliances fracture and reform, the Killjoys discover that the Quad faces an extinction-level threat. A mysterious, god-like
alien civilization known as the Hullen—who are connected to both the Green and Dutch’s origins—invade the system. Motivated by loyalty to one another and a fierce, protective love that borders on found-family devotion, Dutch, John, and D'avin must bridge the divide between corporate overlords and freedom fighters. They wage a desperate, asymmetric war to prevent the total annihilation of their home.The conflict crescendos when Dutch learns she must confront Aneela, who is trapped behind a cosmic barrier known as the Lady—a malevolent entity of pure consumption and void. To save humanity and the Quad, the Killjoys assemble a fragile coalition of rebels, former enemies, and RAC leadership. Following heartbreaking sacrifices, the death of beloved comrades, and grueling personal reckonings, Dutch faces the Lady in a final, reality-bending showdown. Relying on her bond with John and D'avin, Dutch outsmarts the entity, shattering the loop of destruction. In the end, the system is liberated from corporate tyranny and cosmic dread, allowing the surviving Killjoys to finally forge a peaceful future together, forever bonded by their turbulent, blood-soaked journey across the stars.
